I hope someday we generate a better breed of leaders (and not politicians).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12476415976762648813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3082101480380856546.post-65459576936066417522009-11-29T22:18:56.034-08:002009-11-29T22:18:56.034-08:00Hey Maddy,

After the last years attack, there were too many statements that the policemen will be given sophisticated weapons and special training to handle these kinda emergencies, security will be tightened, the accused will be dealt with iron hand. But, one year on, nothing has changed but for the last digit in the date.<br /><br />If this attack of such a magnitude, doesnt wake them up, nothing will. Hope the next attack on the parliament succeeds.Shankar.Nashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10066686159950873506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3082101480380856546.post-9659809699325255432009-11-26T22:00:59.345-08:002009-11-26T22:00:59.345-08:00Awesome one Madhu...

I am sure that tomorrow government will spend 50 crore for upkeep of this monument. <br /><br />Toall taxpayers….
